Lay the line in such a way that condensation pockets do not form. If required, you need to
install a condensation container below the negative pressure line of the pressure transmitter.

When taking measurements in a closed container with strong condensate formation, you must
fill the negative pressure line (mostly with the condensate of the measured medium) and install
a condensate pot. Lock the device using the dual pneumatic block 7MF9017-..A.
